Common questions in Enborne Row
How far is Enborne Row from London?
We cover Enborne Row, about 55 miles from central London.
Do you work near Newbury station?
Yes. Newbury station is about 2.6 miles north-east of Enborne Row, and we cover both.
Can asbestos be left in place?
Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
Can you help a business or landlord?
We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Make the area safe first: close it off and don’t clean it up yourself. Then get in touch and we’ll advise.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we will arrange to see it.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes, of course. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
The process
On the day, we set up the work area first: barrier tape, signs and protection where needed, and keep the material wet as we work. On the day, we check the area and talk you through the plan first. Late-December sunset in Enborne Row is about 4:00pm, so outdoor jobs start early.
- Send us the postcode and photos
- We check whether it’s licensed, notifiable or non-licensed work
- We agree a date and any notification needed
- We set up the work area and remove the material
- We dispose of the waste legally and send the paperwork
Getting ready
- Clear belongings, but leave the material alone
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property

Where asbestos turns up
Materials deteriorate with age: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is often when people decide to remove them.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
- Asbestos found during building work
For rentals close to Newbury station, removal fits neatly between tenancies.
What your quote should include
- The scope of the job, in writing
- For licensed work, a valid HSE licence
- What category of work it is
- How fibres will be kept down
